Many believe that the main benefit of spreadsheet inspections is that they locate issues so they
can be fixed. Certainly they do accomplish that. But spreadsheet inspections, when performed
early enough and often enough, can actually prevent problems. And preventing problems is
certainly more valuable than locating them.

We hope that you’ll apply what you learn about spreadsheet inspections when you work on your
projects. If you’re working in a team, review your project schedule and decide when would be
advantageous times to insert an inspection or two. If you’re working alone, ask someone else
who’s working alone if they would be willing to inspect your project in exchange for your
inspecting theirs.

Since we don’t grade on a curve, helping someone else doesn’t hurt you. Inspection exchanges
raise the quality of both projects — and both grades.
Whatever you do, don’t wait until the end to do your inspections.
